WINDOWS 8 "MAXIMUM MODERN UI"

[thenanoguy]

I hope I don't break any rules here by linking to my own work, but it is NOT for commercial purposes. I have been working 5 hours a day for a week to redesign the icons in the Windows 8 Desktop. And I kind of want your feedback, too. It is not a concept, but it is in my opinion an alpha stage work. 263 modified icons.

If you like it, please share with your friends as I am in desperate need of feedback.

I have attached a few previews. I have almost finished alpha stage work on all Explorer Ribbon icons, and will post a preview when done.

I do NOT intend to commercialize it. I simply want to make a modification of the icons. To "metrofy" them all so that the whole Desktop looks more like the Modern UI, well, at least the icons, that is. I really think Windows Blue should bring new aesthetics for the desktop, otherwise it will look weird in combination with the Modern UI. Also, I think an integration of the Desktop Explorer with the ModernUI similar to what Stardock is doing with ModernMix , but taken the other way around, would make things a bit more cohesive in Windows 8.(for example the ability to switch between metro and desktop apps in the same interface, running desktop apps in kind of a fullscreen mode with auto-hide menus like internet explorer 10 etc.)
